China calls for end to war to protect children Xinhua News Agency, United Nations, 26 October. Fu Kong, China's permanent representative to the UN, spoke at the Security Council's public meeting on children and armed conflict on the 26th, calling for the protection of children through an end to war. According to him, the most direct and effective way to protect children is to put an end to conflicts and violence as soon as possible. China calls on all parties to the conflict to abide by the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter, cease hostilities, strictly comply with their obligations under international law, and refrain from attacking civilians and civilian facilities such as children and schools. All parties must maintain a common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable concept of security, properly handle differences through dialogue and consultation, and promote a political settlement of early issues. It is necessary to increase humanitarian support, improve conditions of access to conflict zones and ensure that children receive the necessary assistance and psychological support in time. According to him, children in the occupied Palestinian territories, in Haiti and other countries are at the forefront of conflict and violence, and they have been severely violated and threatened for a long time. Generations of children were deprived of their beautiful childhood. China supports the Security Council in using the necessary tools to seriously account for acts of child abuse. China supports the UN Secretary-General's Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict in the performance of his duties, calls for more reporting on UN oversight, supports the Security Council Working Group on Timely Review of Children's Reports by relevant countries, and calls on all parties to take effective actions to end atrocities against children. He said that development is the basic solution to solving the roots of conflicts. It is necessary to support the governments of the countries concerned to ensure people's basic livelihood needs such as food, education, medical care and employment, improve the environment for the growth and development of children and get rid of the shadow of war and the cycle of violence. It is necessary to constantly release the potential of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, adhere to a people-oriented approach and above, protect the rights of children in conflicts to receive an education, strive to bridge the digital divide and ensure that more countries in the Global South benefit. He said China supports the close cooperation between the United Nations and the African Union to help conflict-affected countries strengthen child protection capacity building. China will continue to provide assistance to developing countries, including Africa, to the best of its ability. China is willing to work together with the international community to eliminate gun violence and strengthen aid and assistance, so that children around the world can grow up healthy and sound in a peaceful and stable environment and create a better future.
